1. One day Symposium on Nutrition and Health for Women Empowerment
Breast cancer awareness workshop for self-evaluation of breast for symptoms of cancer is a very first initiative of GASYM, to speak to women on preliminary identification by self-assessment of breast. Women of all the age groups who are shy to speak about the breast mass and also most of them don't visit doctor and ignore the probable symptoms. GASYM is committed to create awareness among women to fight against this ignorant reasons of breast cancer and be confident to communicate the symptoms to the doctor.
According to United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) India, one third of adolescent women in India are undernourished, with a body mass index (BMI) of less than 18.5 kg/m2. And it is well known that undernourished mother inevitably gives birth to an undernourished baby, perpetuating an intergenerational cycle of malnutrition.
GASYM with the extended support of Smt. Shreemathi Hariprasad, Prof. Jamuna Prakash; Prof. Venkataramaiah; Hemalatha in association with IQAC and PG department of Biochemistry, Maharani's Science College For Women, organized the one-day symposium on "Nutrition and Health for Women Empowerment" on September 25th, 2019. This helped to create awareness about malnutrition and to improve the nutritional intake among the young minds who participated in the symposium.
